    Aww, thanks Beanie; she rallied Tues but was wincing a bit again yesterday, so I'll have a word with the doc & see if it's something they should look at.

    So I had my gnashers inspected & have been given 6mths parole for good flossing :j but did get the ever famous bread & fresh fruit, making my Dec total 16 I rather surprised myself, considering I joined a little late but obviously all that previous practice came in handy :D See you on the Jan thread :wave:

    And here are our stats for December - I think we've done exceptionally well at grabbing NSDs :money:


    February - average = 9.178
    November – average = 9.27
    September - average = 9.402
    December – average = 10.125
    January - average = 10.637
    July - average = 10.735
    August - average = 11.020
    March - average = 11.080
    May - average = 11.115
    April - average = 11.421
    June - average = 11.477


    Collectively, we managed 89.4% of our total target – which is better than November
    From those of us that signed up 92.5% of us actively took part.
    And finally 52.5% of us hit our target – again, better than November
    What a fantastic group of NSDers we are – December was such a tough month and well done to everyone for every single NSD nabbed

  • The shame of it,MIA for a long time....'blushes'


    NSDs are still very close to my heart.I managed 15 in December,so short of 2 nsds to make my target.As we all know,December is a tricky month...


    Hope you that you all had a great Christmas and New Year!


    Here's to 2014 being a great year for all of us!


    PS Hoping that those who imbibed in Igor's 'anti-freeze' frozen voddie and devilled-egg and manky kipper kedgeree are making a speedy recovery.
